KNIT GOODS WITH MOISTURE SENSOR

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide knit goods which can sense moisture.

SOLUTION: The woven fabric includes a knit fabric comprising at least a thread from a material in which the electrical resistance of the thread changes depending on the effect of moisture, and has a built in type moisture sensor with at least two conductive electrodes installed with a distance. The lines or columns of stitches of the knit fabric are arranged between the electrodes. The electrodes each contain at least an electrical conductive thread, wherein the electrical conductive threads are knitted into the knit fabric, and electrically connected to electrical connecting means which is accessible from outside.
